Short Stuff Sunflower

Adorable petite sunflowers with the traditional bright yellow blooms that average 6 inches across. They stay less than 3 feet tall and make a great container or Greenstalk option. I like planting them along fences or in front of taller growing flowers and plants. Single bloom per stalk. Sunflowers are beloved by squirrels and any other number of critters here. I like to overplant quite a lot so that I am guaranteed that a few are missed by pests. I'll even put chicken wire loosely over the area I plant so the squirrels cant dig them up easily and then remove it once it has its first set of true leaves.

Packet: ~40 seeds

Good to start from seed in these months:
